Verdict
Western Beat beat TRAILBLAZER in an amateurs’ race over track and trip in January but the latter re-opposes on more favourable terms having placed back here subsequently and is also preferred to Fifty Sent, who ended last year with a second at Yarmouth. Most of the remainder drop down in distance including the returning Heatherdown Hero and Isle of Wolves, who went close over 1m4f at Southwell earlier in the year.
